wish it to be subject to publicity."

for some years, capped a series of
expeditions In various parts of the
world by attempting a northern
British Columbia mountain crossing with tractors In the summer
of 1934.
The trek failed, but the goal
was only a few days march away

Domestic Mart
Aids Province
Says Foreman
Outlining the objects of the B.C.
Products Bureau of the Vancouver
board of trade, A, C. Foreman, secretary of the bureau, told the Rotary club Monday, in a five-minute
talk, that its aim was to create good
will and local interest in the province's products, and to enlist the cooperation of the merchants and ot
lhe consumers alike, in promoting
their use.
Pointing out that the province's
prosperity was now mainly dependent on its export business, he argued
that this prosperity would be more
stable and substantial if supplemented by a good domestic market for
the province's own products.
While British Columbia was exporting $100,000,000 more in commodities each year than it was importing, the other provinces, with
Ontario leading, imported $73,500,000
more than 1hey exported, which
helped Canada's foreign trade to
balance.
It was not a parochial viewpoint,
Mr. Foreman said, but one that served the best interests of the nation,
that dictated that each part of the
Dominion should develop those industries that were natural to it,

Residents of Lydda were permitted to leave their homes for only
two hours each day. This 22-hour
"curfew" was ordered for three days
while troops scour the area for

Guards on all highways and
around International business establishments were reinforced. Police, wearing steel helmets for the
first time since last year's bloody

Curfew was maintained at Jerusalem, where sporadic killings continued.
A major clash involving several
hundred Arabs was reported from
northern Palestine, in the Galilee
region, just south of the Syrian
border. The fighting reportedly lasted two hours and was marked by
gunfire and bomb blasts.

MORE ABOUT
FUR THEFT
(Continued From Page One)
Conviction of the men was preceded by a year-long search by air
and land lhat led officers over thousands of miles of wild territory.
FIRST CHARGED
YEAR AGO
Sheffield   and   Courvolsicr  were
first charged with the Fort Nelson
robbery on Aug. 13 last year, and
two days later they were committed
for trial and taken to Prince George,
On Aug. 21 they elected for speedy
! trial, and when they appeared before  Mr.  Justice   A.  I.  Fisher  at
i Prince George on Oct. 7, 1936 they
pleaded not guilty. Bail wa,s set at
$1000 each, and the men were released until the Prince George spring
j assizes.
On May If), 1937 a stay of proceed-
; ings was entered by the British Columbia attorney-general's department
in the Fort Nelson case, but the department pressed charges of possession of stolen goods in connection
with the $2000 fur robbery from
the Fort St. John Post of Hudson's
Bay company in 1932. A week later
Sheffield and Courvoisier were acquitted by an assize court jury of the
latter charge.
FURS FOUND
Then, on* Aug. 11 this year an
Indian discovered ,19 bales of raw
furs piled by a river bank only a
few miles from Fort Nelson, and a
provincial police posse started once
again on their trail.
Officers failed, however, to overtake the fleeing suspects. A few
weeks ago Courvoisier and Sheffield were turned back as they attempted to cross into the United
States at Sweetgrass, Mont. They
were held by Alberta police until
a British Columbia police escort arrived to bring them back for trial.
London Speaks Today
WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 (AP)-
Alf M. Landon's announcement of
a speech tomorrow night aroused
speculation today on two questions:
1. Will the 1930 Republican presidential nominee comment directly
on President Roosevelt's talk of last
Tuesday outlining his program for
a special session of the U. S. con-
gross?
2. Will he discuss Republican
preparations for the 1938 election
campaign, including the proposed
off-year convention?
Landon gave no clue to his subject In announcing his address.
The Morning AfterTaking
Carter's Little Liver Pills
Dr. Sparks Tells
Duties of Health
Officer to Gyros
Methods  of  Fighting
Disease to Check
Spread Shown
That prevention of disease in the
place of cure was the objective of
every conscientious health officer
was the declaration of Dr. F. P.
Sparks, Nelson public health officer,
before the Nelson Gyro club Monday evening, and thus their motto,
"An ounce nf prevention is worth
a pound of cure."
Striving to attain this objective
he said, health officers' activities
developed in four divisions, "a
study of general sanitation of our
environment", "control of communicable disease", "interest in the individual and nublic health education".
In the first, duties of a health
officer demanded inspections of a
city's water supply, food and milk
supply, a major factor in controlling the transportation of disease.
Milk, declared the doctor, was
known as a notorious carrier and
was the seat of many cases of tuberculosis, typhoid and other diseases. Pasteurized milk was upheld
as the only absolutely safe milk.
Early treatment of such diseases
as lead poisoning and silicosis, disease that has lately claimed many
victims engaged in hard rock mining, was prescribed as tlie only possible mode of prevention, for once
these diseases took hold the stricken
person was doomed.
Industrial safeguards also claimed the attention of health doctors, in
their prevention campaign. Conditions under which men labored
were inspected and garages and
such places where the collection of
carbon monoxide and dioxide was
possible checked for proper ventilation facilities.
The housing question presented
an immense problem, Dr. Sparks
declared, for even in Nelson living
conditions were not all that they
could be. Proper ventilation, sunlight and an abundance of air were
absolute requirements for proper
living and in any case where these
are not supplied a centre for spread
of disease was formed. In one instance he said, he discovered in
Nelson a family of nine, two adults
and seven children ranging in age
from 16 years to a few months, living in three tiny rooms.
Fortunately placed for sewage
disposal, Nelson was not taking full
advantage of nature in this way,
Dr. Sparks revealed, for one of its
sewers, emptying into the West Arm
did not reach far enough out, and
he had discovered swimmers sporting in waters, possibly contaminated, less than 60 feet from its mouth.
Typhoid, diphtheria, scarlet fever,
smallpox, chicken pox, mumps, v.-
nereal disease cases, in fact all cases
of communicable disease are carefully checked. Their sources arc
uncovered, and every attempt made
to check their spread. No matter
how earnest an officer's work, he
declared, it was useless without the
cooperation of public spirited citizens.
The public was negligent and uncooperative in battling venereal
disease. While the public remained
blind to the facts of these diseases,
he said, they were bound to claim
an increasing toll. This was evident
in the fact that during his three
and a half months as medical officer here 11 cases of syphilis had
been reported to him. The public
refused to come from "out of the
parlor" and fight these dread diseases, he said, urging whole-hearted
cooperation. The press, radio broadcasts and motion pictures were
gradually opening the public eye
to these cases.
Individual health records, tho
medical history of a person from
birth to death, were greatly benefitting health officers, he said.
Health education, one of the most
direct and successful ways of combatting disease, was explained, Tin;
work was carried on in the home
and in the school. Every talk with a
pupil during regular school examinations was turned into a health
education, he said, while distribution of literature helped -accomplish
the same in the home. Thus the
work of a health, doctor in combatting disease was widened until he
had the public fighting side by
side with him.
Dr. R. B. Shaw, program chairman, and V. C. Owen, vice-president, extended the thanks of the
gathering to the doctor.
Slides, displaying results of specially treated color films of scenes in
and around Vancouver and Victoria,
were shown by Morrison McTavish
of the Vancouver Gyro club.

Invitation to citizens of Nelson
to attend the official opening of the
city's new Five-Mile reservoir was
extended by the city council Monday night.
Mayor J. P. Morgan, announcing
that ihe reservoir was to be opened

MORE ABOUT
STOCK (RASH
(Continued From Page One)
It was noted, however, the
downward push began in real
earnest about the time the American Iron & Steel Institute announced, after midday, that national operations In the Industry
had dropped to 55.8 per cent of
capacity from 63.6 per cent a
week ago and 74.2 a year ago.
Also mentioned were damaged
margin accounts being liquidated
following the long decline in share
prices from mid-August nnd the
world tension over European and
far eastern crises.
The market hung up a new
record for breadth as 1014 stock
issues traded on the "big board"—
four more than the exchange's
previous record at the height of
the 1929 collapse.
TRANSACTIONS UNDER
WIDE BREAKS
Total transactions were far under
those in wide breaks before federal
controls were clamped down on
speculative activity in the stock
market. Turnover was 3,227.520
shares, heaviest since last March 3.
Since stocks rounded the recovery
top last March, more than half of
the gains of the rise from the 1932
lows have been swept away by recurrent waves of liquidation, mostly since Labor day.
Motor, steel, farm implement,
chemical, mail order and other industrial shares basking in bullish
favor when "inflation" psychology
hold sway in the marketplace were
among the chief sufferers.
NEW LOWS AT TORONTO
TORONTO. Oct. 18 (CP)-Rlocks
cracked down to now low prices for
two years today on the Toronto exchange on the hcols of heavy selling
at sharp price declines in New York.
Toronto market indices registered
losses of five to seven points, closing at their lowest points since 1035.
There was nothing resembling a
rnllv in the final stage.
The opening was stronger and
prices were higher at noon but a
selling drive in the early afternoon
in New York pulled the interested
Canadian stocks into the downward
current and domestic listings of
the Toronto market fell into line.

Selassie's Title
in British Courts
LONDON, Oct. 18 (AP)-The right
of Haile Selassie still to call himself Emperor of Lthiopia was
brought up in chancery court today when the negus sued Cable and
Wireless for £10,(100 ($49,587).
Counsel for the exiled ruler explained that sum was owed him
under an agreement for Ethiopia-
British wireless service the day he
fled Addis Ababa.
The company, contended the king
of Italy is now the Ethiopian sovereign, thus Selassie's cause for
action is vested in the Italian government.
Selassie's counsel made a point
that the British government still
recognizes Selassie as emperor.
Counsel read a statement he had
solicited and received from Foreign

TRY A WANT AD
11-MillTax Levy Will Pay for
Consolidation in Creston Area
CRESTON, B.C.—An 11 mill tax
levy on each of the nine sections interested will erect, equip, pay for
buses, and teaching staff and all other expenses in connection with the
proposed new 13-room high school
at Creston. and will also pay the
running expenses of the existing
public schools in the nine school
districts. The 11 mill rate would
continue for 10 years by which time
it is estimated the cost of building
and equipping the new high school
would be fully liquidated. This computation is made on the basis of the
1937-38 assessment which now totals
almost $2,(100,000.
This information and much more
of a practical nature is revealed in
a carefully prepared report by Alt
Spencer, which was submitted at a
conference of trustees of the nine
districts held at Creston Thursday,
nt which all the schools were represented except West Creston and
Huscroft. J. E. Van Ackeren, was in
charge which was attended by pub-
lie school inspector. J. E. Brown ot
Cranbrook, who is official trustee for Arrow Creek.
The 13-room structure will be provided by utilizing the present high
fchool at Creston which will furnish six rooms. The additional classrooms will be in the way of an addition.
Seven buses will be required to
transport the pupils from Grades
7 to 12. It is figured there will be
about 200 next school year at outlying points, with about the same at
Creston. At outlying points 44 would
have lo be brought in from Wynn-
del-Alice Siding; 17 from West Creston; fit) from Arrow Crrek-Eriekson:
and 85 from Huscroft-Listcr-Canyon,
The report submitted combines the
efforts of Mi. Van Ackeren, James
Cook and Mr. Spencer, committee
who, have gone thoroughly into the
building and transportation costs
as well as salaries and genera! operating expense. The new high school
way improvement would have to be
made to assure safe travel conditions. Along this line the meeting
went on record as approving letters
being sent the .ntercsced parties
asking what assurance would be
given as to better roads if the merger was favorably considered.
Those attending the meeting were
J. E. VanAckeren, Canyon; J. B.
Holder, E. E. Cartwright, Erickson; John Bird, Camp Lister; John
R, Miller, Alice Siding; T. Sixsmith
and A. Spencer, Wynndel; J. E
Brown, Arrow Creek; and F. H.
Jackson and R. Ibbitson, Creston.
H, A. Powell, secretary to tlie committee, was unavoidably absent,
and Mr. Brown acted as secretary.

SOUTH PARIS, Me., Oct. 18 (AP)
—Charged with the murder of an
elderly South Paris doctor, Paul
Dwyer, 18, pleaded innocent today.
Besides the charge of murdering
Dr. James G. Littlefield. Dwyer
is also charged witr, strangling the
07-year-old physician's wife, Lydia,
65.
Police said Dwyer strangled Mrs.
Littlefield Friday when she "became suspicious" after he had driven
her around since Wednesday night

was stuffed in the rear trunk of the
automobile.

course will include home economics,
sewing, science, manual arts, commercial work, etc.
According to the statement as prepared by the three trustees the cost
of remodelling the old high school
and building the seven-room addition would be $25,000. Allowing for
interest this will entail an expense
of $3500 per annum for 10 years. This
it would appear, is for a frame
building, and would not be sufficient
if construction were of stucco or
other more fireproof material.
The report points out that for the \
present school year the districts in-;
terested are paying a total of about
$21,000, and of this $1100 is for tuition fees between schools, which
would not be necessary under con-
solidation. Under consolidation it j
is suggested possibly another $1500 j
would be saved by the central buying of supplies, fuel, insurance, etc.,'
for the nine school districts.
The report was fully considered ,
and the meeting, after expressing
appreciation of the effort of the committee went on record as approving
provision of sufficient copies to be
supplied each trustee with the request that the trustee boards have
a special meeting to thoroughly digest, the report and then fix dates for
the holding of special ratepayers
meeting at which Messrs. Van Ackeren. Cook, Spencer and Inspector
Brown will appear and go into the
whole situation. At the close of
the meetings a vote will be taken
to ascertain the wishes of each district.
A look over the tax rate In each
of the districts indicates that the
11 mills will make quite a boost to
existing tax payments in three of
the sections, and a slight raise in
two others.
Some   objection   to  consolidation
is in evidence clue to the poor shnne

SUCCESSOR TO FAMOUS SOCIAL WORKER HAS PROBLEMS
For Normal, Well
Folk Hard Water
Is Not Injurious
By  LOGAN  CLENDENING,  M.  D.
Is hard water harmful?
This question troubles some part
ot the population from time to
lime, and faddists seize on it to
sound the alarm.
Hard water is water with calcium
salts dissolved in lt. Water softeners simply take calcium out of such
water, usually by means of the
chemical, potassium-sodium-alumi
num silicate—often called "green
sand".
The body contains about 1 per
cent of calcium, or nearly one and
one-half pounds, and as it is constantly being lost, it must be replaced. Especially is this true during periods of growth, and for the
mother who is bearing a child. The
daily requirement for the unborn
child at four months is 150 milligrams of calcium: a quart of mill-
contains this and more.
Nutritional experts tell us that
calcium is more likely to be deficient in the average dietary than
any other important element.
If that be true, hard water should
be beneficial rather than harmful. .
The belief that such is the case
is strengthened by the reports of
Meyer of Vienna (published in
1920), who examined young men
. irom different parts of Europe as
to their relative litness for military duty, considered on the basis
of the quality of the water supply
at their homes. He found that the
best teeth were in those who came
from areas where harder potable
waters were used. He also snowed
that the population of Gotha showed evidences of "deterioration" after
they were compelled to change tlie
.supply of drinking water from one
' of hard quality to a softer kind.
INDICATION AGAINST
HARMFULNESS
"While we  may  take  the  latter
with a little justitlcable skepticism,
the indication certainly is against
suppposlng that hard waters are
harmful.
The fear usually stated is that
it contributes to hardening of the
arteries and to chronic rheumatism. Undoubtedly calcium is deposited in the arteries in old age,
and is the ingredient in the nodules
around the joints of rheumatism,
but there is no evidence to show
that these processes are accelerated when the amount of calcium in
the water is increased.
Many physicians are of the opinion that after chronic rheumatism
has started, the use of hard water for drinking purposes should
be stopped. This is a matter of
discussion, and it must be admitted there is some justification for
such a view, the CAUSE of the
deposit in chronic rheumatism is
the laying down of calcium in and
around spots of inflammation in the
joints. The calcium will not be
laid down under conditions of health
no matter how much is in the blood.
But after the inflammation has
started, the presence of excess calcium in the drinking water may
reasonably be thought to lead to
excessive calcium deposits in the
bone.

Lets Swdetie Go With Others
Youth Thinks it's Selfish lo Keep
Girl From Parlies Which She Likes
By   VIRGINIA   LEE
"DEAR MISS LEE: Maybe you
lake Puzzled Ann's boy friend's
idea all wrong. I am one who says
the same thing to my girl friend
once in awhile. We do not live in
the same town.
"My girl friend, whom I love
very much, and wish to marry as
soon as she will say yes, lnvcs good
times, dances, whereas I don't dance,
hale parties and crowds, but try
hard lo do things she would like.
Now wouldn't I be selfish to expect
her to give, up dancing because I
don't? If I go to a dance with
her, it would be a boresomc evening for both. She wouldn't want
to dance with strangers because I
was there, and how do you think
I'd feel to see her dancing with some
other fellow? So I tell her to go
out to dances and parlies with
others. It doesn't hurt so much
when I don't see it, and I know
she has a good time.
"Now believe me when T say I
love this girl, because I'd do anything possible to make her happy.
No one can describe what love is.
You just know when you love some
one. It's more than just companionship — that's just being
friends. I look to my girl for
companionship, someone to talk
troubles over wilh and straighten
them out. To me she is the most
beautiful girl in the world, the only
girl in the world.
"I don't want to go out nor am
I interested in other girls. But I
love her too much to ask her to
clop going out with other fellows.
She knows I trust her and she
won't give me reason to mistrust
her. I tell her to go out and wish
and hope she won't. I don't want
to be jealous, and am fighting it
off that vfay. Tell a person to go
ahead and do something exactly
right and usually they won't. BUT
say, DON'T, and see how quickly
they do. Try it sometime. If
Puzzled Ann's boy friend was
through he wouldn't tell her such
things — he'd just casually drift
away.
"May I come In again, with my
ideas, Miss Lee?
"ONE OF MANY"
You may certainly write again.
I like your ideas, I didn't print
Puzzled Ann's letter, you remember, so you don't know the whole
story. I may have been mistaken,
but it looked very much to me,
taking the whole of the letter, that
he was trying to gradually break
the engagement.
And I'm wondering if this lovely
girl of yours will want to go to
dances afte* you are married, or
-whether she will be satisfied to
settle down with you; She should,
for you are very unselfish in your
love for her.
By the way, did you ever analyze
your own feeling about going to
dances and parties? Is it not
possible that if you could feel you
were a success at them — if you
could learn to be a success — you
would enjoy them? Just give that
a thought. If you grow to like to
have a good time—tho kind that
she enjoys—it might help to make
your marriage an even greater
success.
•   •   *
RAOULS: As you have written
to the boy you like best and he
hasn't answered, better go out with
other boys and try to have a good
time with them. If he really likes
you he will come back.

Demoting (hild Is
Risky Method,
Bad Mental Health
By GARRY C. MYERS, PH. D.
Last June many school children
were promoted on probation. The
child and his parents were told
that he was promoted on trial; that
if he showed satisfactory progress
in the next grade he would be allowed to stay in it; that if he did
not show salisfactory progress at
the end of a few weeks he would be
put back to the grade from which
he was promoted.
Iri some cases the child promoted
on probation attended summer
school or had special instruction of
some other sort. As a rule, however, nothing had been done during the summer to help this child
in his school work, Yet in many
instances he may have been reminded by his parents that unless he worked hard this fall he
would have to be put back. With
this warning went the suggestion
lhat if he were demoted, he would
disappoint and disgrace his parents.
Since the opening of school this
fall, he probably has been reminded
daily of the danger of demotion,
Even some teachers will try to
spur this sort of child to greater
effort with this threat. Though
such procedure may induce a few
children to strive harder, the success of others must be greatly hin-

WHAT IS OVERLOOKED
What teachers and principals
may overlook is that the psychology of demotion in so much more
hazardous to the child's peace of
mind and mental health than failure of promotion would have been.
But what about those children

Eyebrows Should Be Neat but Nol
Weirdly Arched, Says Miss Glad
MONA BARRIE
Attractive brows ar« kept In natural
By  GLADYS GLAD
Una
There still are some girls today
who persist in trying to achieve ex-
otically and unnaturally arched
eyebrows. But most of the beauties
of the screen, stage and society believe in letting nature take its
course insofar as eyebrows are concerned. They make no attempt to
change lhe natural contour of their
brows. They pluck them, of course,
brows. They pluck them, of course,
but merely to remove any stray
hairs and to keep them clean and
neat in appearance. For it is now
believed that, good old Mother Nature shapes the brows so that Ihey
harmonize perfectly with the remainder of one's features.
Personally, I thing that this is
the right idea. It is my belief that
when plucking the eyebrows, the
natural line of each brow should be
preserved, so far as possible. Only
the stray hairs that tend to make
them look unruly should be extracted. Never try to achieve the
exaggerated and unique arches of
your favorite exotic screen star,
for if the brows arc plucked into
a shape that Nature never intended
them to have, they may detract,
rather than add, to your lovliness.
If you really want to do a perfect job of plucking your eyebrows,
always sterilize your eyebrow
tweezers before you use them.
When the brows are plucked, tlie
pores in the skin open, and if the
tweezers are not perfectly clean,
germs may enter these pores and
cause blemish os and eruptions. The
sterilizing process is, after all, a
simple matter. Even boiling water
will do the trick. And it certainly
is worth doing, don't you think?
PLUCK CAREFULLY
In addition, of course, the plucking itself should be done carefully.
Before the tweezing is started, a
generous coating of cold cream
should be smoothed over each brow
and permitted to remain on for a
while. This will soften the brows
and surrounding skin. Then the
brows should be brushed into shape
with a small eyebrow brush, and
the plucking itself should be done.
After the tweezing and shaping
have been completed, all remaining
cream should be removed, and a
soothing astringent should be ap-

plied to close the pores, to eliminate
any possible germ infection, and to
tone up the skin surrounding the
eyebrows.
Another factor that tends to
make the brows look fuzzy and
neglected is when the tiny hairs,
arc .stiff and unruly, and refuse to
lie in their proper alignment. But
it really isn't difficult to train them.
Merely brushing the brows frequently with a small eyebrow brush
will make the tiny hairs more tractable and help to keen them neatly
in place. And if the brush is moistened with a bit of plain vaseline
or odorless castor oil before each
brushing, the treatment will prove
doubly effective.
Some eyebrows, of course, are extremely stubborn and refuse to respond satisfactorily to the brushing. It is possible to train such
brows, however, through Ihe use of
ordinary cornstarch with enough
cold water to form a thick, smooth
paste. Then brush your brows into
shape with a small brush, and
spread the paste thickly over them,
The paste will quickly harden, so
let it remain on over night. The
following morning remove it with
tepid water and a soft cloth. And
as the final step, brush the brows
with vaseline or castor oil to promote their health and glossiness.
CHICAGO, Oct. 18 (CP).-Miss
Charlotte Carr found herself confronted with an immediate problem
of overhead when she took over
her duties as head resident of Hull
House, famed women's social settlement founded by the late Jane Ad-
dams.
But Miss Carr, who in 22 years
progressed from an $18-a-mbnth job
as matron of a Columbus, 0., orphan
asylum to that of chief of New
York city's emergency relief commission where she handled up to
$9,000,000 a month, was not daunted.
She simply looked at the vaulted
high ceiling of the huge living
room in her apartment in Hull
House and announced that most, it
not all, of the dozen chandeliers,
each showing the influence of a different country, would be taken
down.
Miss Carr regards herself more
as  a   labor  leader  than   a  social
worker, She was especially interested in the problems of factory girls
and girls In the low-wage groups.
This dates from her experience with
the New York Probation and Protective Association, when as a
special policewoman during the
Great War, she came into contact
with women factory workers in
Brooklyn.
High spots in her career include
the position of assistant employ!
ment manager of a large industrial concern, and acting director
of a number of women in industry
in the New York State Department
of Labor. In 1925 she went to Pennsylvania to organize a similar bureau
in that state's department of labor
and shortly afterward became secretary of labor in Pennsylvania,
In May, 1935, she was appointed
assistant director of home relief in
New York city. Later she was made
executive director- of the city's relief commission.
that none will be demoted, but that
they will be set to do only what
they are able to do. Accordingly,
some children in the fifth grade
will be set at reading or arithmetic, say, as fourth, or third, or even
second grade level. Then if at the
end of the term their degree of
progress docs not warrant promo*
tion, let them repeat.
By and by practically no child
will be promoted on trial. Practically all will go forward with
their group, being set to do only
what they can succeed at. On their
record cards in the office will be
recorded exactly what they have
achieved. The teacher will have
access to this rocord and, in most
instances, the parent will. When
such time arrives we shall have to

Potting hyacinths
Hyacinths do not need to be
grown in a forcing pit or greenhouse, for they can be easily grown
indoors in a low container in
pebbles or bulb fiber. The French-
Roman hyacinths are ideal for this
use. They have from three to five
long slender flower spikes, and are
more graceful for indoor bloom
than the common varieties. Plant
them as you would narcissi. Keep
the bowl in the dark at a temperature of from 50 to 55 degrees until
the roots are well established and
the bud and foliage are one to two
inches high.
This Garden-Graph shows how
lo force the buds to group up before blooming, when you take them
out into the light. Place a paper
cone about them as diagrammed,
Bulbs should never be set on a
cement floor when stored, for the
coldness prevents the roots from
growing down. First cover the
cement, if necessary, with wood
paper or burlap.
The best drainage for wet soils is
a line of agricultural tile, which
may empty into roadside ditch or
into a dry well, or any other convenient place. For every hundred

Plant your first indoor narcissi
now. and continue to make plantings
at three-week intervals until March

This Garden-Graph shows how
to plant the bulbs in a bowl in
either moist fiber or pebbles placing the bulb tip level with the

pebbles firmly around the bulbs,
covering the shoulders but leaving
the tip exposed. Keep the bulbs
well watered, and the water level

Serial Story
Dead Reckoning
By BHUCE HAMILTON
READ THIS FIRST:
Tim Kennedy, who has been writing a suicide note to himself in his
wife's handwriting, graduated into
homicide from the school of armchair murderers. At middle age,
having made a fortunate marriage
to Esther Ashwell, and possessing
a lucrative dental practice and an
enviable social position in a small
town near London, Tim felt happy
and secure. Then Esther was run
down by a truck. Weeks later- she
was brought home, a physical wreck
and a cripple for life. Tim loses all
interest in his wife because of her
appearance. He suggests they hold
their annual tennis party dspite her
condition. He looks forward to an
appointment with Alma Shepherd,
a widow and new client whom he
has suggested to Esther they invite
to the tennis parly. At his office
Tim arranges special flowers for
Mrs. Shepherd's benefit as she ar.
rives.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY:
CHAPTER 10
In an interval when she was able
to speak, Alma Shepherd sighed,
as she sat in Kennedy's dental
chair.
"I envy you your flowers," she
said. "I've only got a tiny garden
at Maybank — half an acre. It
doesn't give much scope."
"One can get a lot of fun out of
a small garden,"
"But not much variety. . . . You
know, I think I've passed your
place. It's in the forest, isn't it—
off the Bradstock road?"
This was coming halfway to meet
him with a vengeance.

SIIICOSIS, PREVENTION AND CURE,
IS LIVELY ISSUE IN MINING (AMPS;
MEDICAL MEN DIFFER ON CAUSES
NELSON DAILY NEWS, NELSON, B.C.-TUESDAY MORNING, OCT, 19. 1937.
Also a Difference of
Opinion as to Cure
of Dread Malady
Silicosis, its prevention and cure
arc daily becoming a livelier issue
in all parts of the world where the
geological formation is such that
silicosis can be contracted. It is a
matter in which the government,
mine owners and workers in mines
are trebly interested on account of
the mortality which occurs from
the disease, and the number of men
who are incapacitated as a result
of it from their ordinary work and
tiie resultant effect on the mining
industry.
So far, opinions by medical men
and other students of the disease
differ as to the cause and cure of
silicosis.
In an article in the Engineering
and Mining Journal, three scientists.
J. J. Denny, metallurgical engineer;
W. D. Robson, chief surgeon; and
D. A. Irwin, associate professor, department of medical research, University of Toronto, have published
an article dealing with the use of
aluminum as a possible aid in reducing silicosis.
The main contention of this article
is that silica within the lungs is
dangerous only when particles are
very small and that interjection of
metallic aluminum almost completely prevents silicious materials from
passing into solution and becoming
small enough to be damaging. Their
article, which follows a lengthy investigation at the Mclntyre Porcupine Mines in Ontario says:
"At the outset the authors point
out two basic facts established by
other investigators; fa) chemical reaction and not the physical presence
of siliceous materials is responsible
for the production of fibrosis in silicosis; (b) tissue reaction to quartz
js definitely proportional to the size
of particle — 1-3 micron particles
produce acute proliferative fibrotic
response, whereas 10-12 micron particles produce only a foreign body
reaction up to a period of three
years. Dangerous silica particles retained by the lung are under 5 microns in diameter.
"The present investigation proceeded on the assumption that fibrotic response of the lung tissue
might be modified if the solubility
of the siliceous material retained in
the lung could be sufficiently reduced. Search was therefore made
for reagents which, when added to
silica, would reduce its solubility.
AT MCINTYRE MINE
"Various elements and compounds
were investigated and on March 4,
1936, Denny and Robson discovered
at the Mclntyre mine that the presence of small amounts of metallic
aluminum almost completely prevented siliceous material from passing into solution. This discovery
was made after investigating Hef-
fernan's theory, which was based
on tho work of Bragg. Heffernan
.suggests that silica is active when
freshly fractured ■ because of its
molecular structure, which presents
numerous unsatisfied oxygen atoms
to interact with tissue elements.
This suggested that if the unsatisfied oxygen atoms could be satisfied
with nascent hydrogen the effect
would be to diminish the toxicity of
silica in tissue and change a fibrotic response into a simple foreign
body reaction.
TE8TS MADE ON RABBITS
"Animals experimentation was
commenced on June 10, 1936, dusting a group of rabbits with mine
quartz, to which small quantities of
metallic aluminum had been added.
In this experiment thirteen rabbits were dusted in specially constructed chambers. Six control animals were dusted with quartz alone,
and seven were dusted with quartz
plus less than 1 per cent of metallic
aluminum,
"At various intervals up to six
months, the lungs and other organs
of the animals were sent to Professor Irwin for pathological examination. On sectioning it was found
that all the controls showed a picture varying from early to well-
established silicosis depending on
the length of exposure. The animals subjected to silica dust containing metallic aluminum all showed either minimal or no fibrosis of
the lungs. No damage was seen in
the lungs or other organs that could
be attributed to the presence of
aluminum. These results showed
that silicosis was inhibited in this
small group of rabbits by admixture
of less than 1 per cent of metallic
aluminum to the quartz dust.
"Dusting experiments similar to
the one described in the foregoing
arc now being carried on, using
larger groups of animals. From this
group, following 3M> months' dusting, tlie lungs of one quartz control animal showed beginning silicosis, whereas tho two animals dusted wilh quartz and 1 per cent aluminum showed no evidence of any
fibrosis."
ONTARIO BOARD
INVESTIGATES
G. C. Bateman, writing in "Mining i
Technology", speaks of investlga-1
tions which were carried out by the
Workmen's Compensation Board in
Ontario, as follows.
"In 1934, the department nf public
health made a survey of miners in
ihe four principal camps—Sudbury,
Porcupine, Kirkland Lake and Cobalt—and the survey indicated that ,
an alarming proportion of Ihe men
exposed to dust and silicosis in one
or other of Its several stages. A
number of conferences were held
between representatives of the De-
' partment of Mines, the Department
of Public Health, the Compensation
Board and the mine, operators. The
operators were advised that hi lhe
earliest stages of silicosis there was
rii- physical disability and if men
in that stage wore removed from
underground there would be little
danger of permanent disability.
They were further advised that if
active steps were taken at once to
compensate men that had some
real disability and remove from
the mines men in lhe early stages
of silicosis, the first cost would be
the greatest and thereafter their
liability should decrease.
"An examining station was cstab-

lished at Porcupine in charge of a
doctor who was believed to be ex-
f'c.rL in diagnosing silicosis. At first
his station was operated by the
mines themselves but subsequently,
at the request of tbe operators, was
taken over by the Workmen's Compensation board. The results of the
early examinations showed so high
an Incidence of silicosis that questions naturally arose as to the accuracy of the diagnosis. It was considered advisable to get advice from
South Africa, where the technique
of examinations had been well
established, and Dr. J. M. Smith,
chairman of the silicosis referee
board in South Africa, was retained
to make a survey of the whole situation.
SOME WRONGLY
DIAGN08ED
"After spending three months in
checking the work done up to that
time, Dr. Smith reported that the
actual number of silicotics was very
much smaller than had been stated,
and that many men having only a
general fibrosis had been classified
as silicotics, Dr. Smith's work resulted in the adoption of the South
African standards for diagnosis in
Ontario, but in the meantime a large
present and prospective liability
had been created for men who were
not entitled to it.
"As time went on, it was also
found that removing the men from
underground did not necessarily
improve their condition or arrest
the disease. In fact, as a general
rule, removal accelerated progression. While this was contrary to the
general view, we were forced to the
conclusion that there was little advantage in removing a known silicotic from his ordinary work, as a
careful analysis of progression rates
indicates little if any difference in
favor of those removed. This, of
course, is subject to the qualifications that every effort should be
made to reduce the dust hazard,
that silicotic workmen should not
be allowed to work where the concentration of dust is high, that
where periodic examinations show a
rapid development of fibrosis the
workman should be removed from
dust exposure before he reaches the
silicotic stage, that where there Is
a definite suspicion of tuberculosis
the workman should not be allowed
to work in dust exposure, and that
no workman with pulmonary tuberculosis should be allowed in any ■
position where he will be a menace
to his fellow employees.
"Theoretically,   the   removal   of
silicotics from dust exposure should
retard the progress of the disease.
In actual practice our experience
has been different. As a general
rule, the occupations that Involve
dust exposure are the highest paid
in industry in Ontario. A man leaving one ot these positions might
have to take lower pay. He might,
on account of industrial conditions,
be unable to get any job. Miners
as a class are difficult to rehabilitate. Removal from the mine meant
that their economic status was probably lowered. The award was soon
spent and with the money gone and
no job they often lived under conditions that accelerated progression. In addition, and perhaps most
important of all, the psychological
effect of the notification from the
board was very bad, Many of the
men practically gave up hope and
made little effort to help themselves.
There was a lowering of morale,
with a consequent bad effect upon
a man's physical condition. These
factors offset the benefits that might
have been expected from removal
of men from underground, and even
if the economic status had remained
the same it is doubtful whether re
moval would appreciably retard the
rate of progression."
ACID V8. ALKALI
One of the most stimulating articles that have been written on this
question of silicosis is by R. C. Emmons and Ray Wilcox of the University of Wisconsin, which appears
in the "Mining and Metallurgy". It
develops the theory that silicosis
is caused by the presence in the
lung of silicic acid and the disease
can be prevented or relieved by the
maintenance of an alkaline condi
tion in the lungs.
This for example might mean that
a man who has been working in a
Kootenay mine in which the ore
was siliceous and acid and as a consequence has developed silicosis,
might be able to leave that mine
and go to work in one in, for ex'
ample, the Slocan district, where
ore is alkaline, and not siliceous,
and find that his troubles are over
as far as silicosis is concerned.
Gypsum, aluminum, calcium, carbon, hematite all neutralize silicic
acid. Messrs. Emmons and Wilcox in
their article say:
"Recently completed experimental work, carried out in the department of geology at the University
of Wisconsin, aiming at a prevention
of silicosis in industry, has been reported in the American Mineralogist. A vast amount of work on
silicosis has been reported in the
literature, the clinical aspects having been especially well covered,
A host of critical observations have
been made on tho variation in the
nature of the silicosis problem in
different environments, and a
great deal of valuable experimental
work has helped to clarify these
observations. At present a greater
amount of information of a critical
sort is available than ever before,

AuTCRNATt In PftENCH DESIGN - PLAN &.
Alternate 1m Colonim. design- Plan C.
While the plans for this house show a compact and
modest sized home, the rooms are large, well laid
out and offer the maximum in comfort and efficiency
The exterior, as shown at the top of the page,
is attractive, but if, for any reason, it does not satisfy, there are two alternate plans, one in French design, in stucco, shown at lower left, and one in colonial, in frame, as is the original. The same floor
plans are used for all three.
The salient features of this house are the vestibule with two closets, the living room fireplace
with book shelves on either side, and the porch
which overlooks the garden and opens from the
dining room.
The size of the main building is 24 by 29 feet;
size over all. 26 feet by 42 feet six inches. Cubage,
house. 17,500 cubic feet; porch, 600; total, 18,100
cubic feet.
which affords a more sound basis
for interpretive thought.
"In the course of the work, tests
were made on various silicate materials to determine their solubility
in blood serum. After treatment of
the powdered material with serum
for a considerable period, the serum
Was analyztd for its silica content.
Most startling of the results was
lhat gericite yielded the greatest
amount of silica. The micas, talc,
opal, quartz, and optical glass all
yielded appreciable silica to the
serum, whereas microline, garnet,
pyroxene and calcic feldspar yielded little silica.
"Animal experiments by other investigators have indicated that sen-
cite and talc do not cause silicosis.
It would seem then that the amount
of silica alone released to solution
through the action of body fluids
on the substance is not the only factor involved.
In summary: Certain minerals appear to be capable of causing silicosis, since they yield silica to solution in body fluids. If these noxious
minerals are in a disperse state in
the lung their potency is at a maximum. If flocculated in the lung by
the presence of other dusfs that
carry an opposite charge in lung
fluids, then the normal lung mechanism for removing foreign bodies
will clear the lung of large dosages.
Since any substance of charge opposite to that carried by the noxious mineral constitutes a protector,
then there must be a large number
of protectors. Convenient and economical protectors are carbon, iron
oxide, and limestone dust, but additional materials may prove suitable
as further results of research accumulate."

He put up the receiver, and
turned smilingly to Mrs. Shepherd.
"That's settled, then."
"Splendid! Thanks most awfully

"It's a great pleasure. There'll
be about half a dozen of us. . . . My

She had a bad accident last year."
"Yes, I heard.   I'm so sorry."

"She'll be very happy to meet
you, though," said Kennedy.
"And I her." Mrs. Shepherd held
out her hand. "Well, many thanks

"You're forgetting your daffodils."
Kennedy took half a dozen of the
choicest blooms from the vase. "I
expect these will be a bit long for
the vase in your car," he added.
"If you wait just a moment I'll
trim them up."
He took a pair of scissors, held
the flowers together, and with delicate precesion snipped about four
inches off the stalks. "That's better," he said.
"You are thoughtful."
He smiled deprecatingly. "Not al

"It's nothing exciting—just shopping. . . . Well—till Saturday."

In the small hours of Saturday

take the matter lightly.
"It was that Welsh rabbit," he
said. "You've got io bo careful

Esther herself, though on edge a
little more than usual, had the
vaguest memory of her terror. She
had been awakened only to fall at
once into a child's sleep, lasting
well into tiie morning. She knew,
too, that she was inclined lo cat
rather imprudently in the evenings.
She found these days that she only
began to feel her real self as the
day failed; until then she could only
peck at her food.
"But it can't be good my sleeping

to do things like that."
"Well, we can pu! a small bed in
your room and let tlie nurse sleep
there. Then she'll be right on the

Nelson Visitor
Miss Ann MacMaster of Vancouver, national vice-president of the
Catholic Women's League of Canada, addressed a joint meeting of
the senior and junior C. W. L-, held
in the Nelson Cathedral hall, Sunday evening.
Miss MacMaster, who is en route
to Vancouver from the diocesan
convention of lhe C. W. L. at Kamloops, took as her subject the
"League" and highlights of tho national convention held at-Kingston
in June, which she attended. She
stressed the privileges and advantages of belonging to this great and
active body, and spoke of the national work being done. The Sisters of Service, she said, were doing very necessary work among the
needy, particularly in isolated districts and on the prairies.
Each year, Miss MacMaster said,
scholarships are given to train two
young women in social service work
and study clubs sponsored by the
League are flourishing. She mentioned in particular the study club
in Antigonish, which has made a
specialty of economic conditions,
and whose work in the cooperative
line is recognized by the whole
country.
In Nelson, Miss MacMaster said
the work of the members of the
League is chiefly with the poor and
needy and in visiting the sick, but
study clubs are to be formed shortly.

lhe Prospector, which he is editing.
Rev. E. A. Brophy also said a few
words.   Refreshments were served.

ALCOHOL AND AUTOS
The part that alcohol plays in traffic fatalities is
clearly shown in figures compiled by Dr. Samuel R. Gerber,
coroner at Cleveland, Ohio, says the Winnipeg Tribune.
Up to the end of August, 217 people had been killed in
traffic this year in Cuyahoga county, of which Cleveland
is the centre. Having conducted post-mortem examinations
in upward of 90 per cent of these deaths, Dr.' Gerber reports that more than half of the people killed were under
the influence of liquor at the time.
Seventy-four per cent of those killed were pedestrians;
six out of every ten of them were intoxicated when killed.
Of the drivers killed, five out of ten were intoxicated; of
the passengers killed, more than half were intoxicated.
The grim part alcohol plays in the situation could not
be more clearly revealed.
READY-MADE NAVY
Not long ago considerable comment was caused by
the action of the United States government in renting to
Brazil several destroyers. This was interpreted as an indication that the United States was giving an indirect
warning to Germany to be more cautious in her attempts
to coerce South American countries into lop-sided trade
arrangements.
Now an arrangement come to light which is likely to
cause even more comment. The United States department
announces that the largest buyer of munitions in that
country during September was Russia, which has placed
orders totalling over $10,000,000. Half of this goes to pay
for "vessels of war of all kinds, including aircraft carriers
and submarines and armor plate for such vessels." Guns,
howitzers and mortars account for another $2,250,000 while
$1,505,000 goes for ammunition for these guns and $1,000,00
for explosives,
Of course there is a considerable difference between
this deal and the one with Brazil. Russia is buying from
private munfacturers, not from the government. But there
will be considerable hard feeling in Germany and Japan
at the prospect of a pre-fabricated fleet being built for
Russia.
Should the arrangements go through, it would mean
an expenditure in the United States of something like
$200,000,000, spread over a period of years. Plans call for
the construction of three battleships armed with 16-inch
guns.
Shipyards of Great Britain have built warships for
many of the smaller nations, but it is something new for
warships to be shipped knocked down. It is doubtful if the
Russians possess the facilities for putting the ships together and keeping them in condition once they are built.
The Singapore base with its huge floating dock was built
to make it possible to refit British ships in the Far East.
A modern navy needs bases as well as warships.

SHOW ANOTHER SUIT
IT IS NEARLY always a mistake to raise or show a fit for your
partner's minor suit If you can bid
any other four-card or longer suit.
This is because there are so few
deals on which 5-odd can be made,
whereas there are rnany on which
4-odd can be made in a suit contract or 3-odd at no trump. Even
if the suit you bid in response contains the weakest kind of no trump
stoppers, it may be the key to
reach a safe no trump game contract.

A CROCODILE WINS AND LOSES
Champions of the Algtmia wolf, who claim it will not
attack man, have fellowship with a group in Australia. The
Australian fellows hold similar views of the crocodile. It,
too, they claim, will not attack human beings in the water.
Greatly daring, the Antipodcans formed a "Suicide
club" Daily, according to the Australian Press bureau, they
took their dip in waters infested by crocodiles and challenged the monsters tp do their worst.
This excels the courage of the wolf's friends. All
went well until a high-spirited crocodile, jealous of the
reputation of his kind, accepted the challenge. He would
prove that the Suicide club was well named; so he picked
out a lad who looked like good picking and gave chase.
He needed speed, as his quarry suddenly decided that the
crocodile might have been misreported; and, anyway, life
was sweet.
The chase was stern but brief. A reputation and a life
were at stake; but a friendly pier made the crocodile an
also-ran—or whatever he was doing in the haste line.
As a consequence of this incident two things have been
definitely established: A crocodile will attack a human
being; and the Suicide club has been disbanded.

(Dealer; South. Both sides vulnerable.)
South began the bidding on this
deal with 1-Club, which West over-
called with 1-Heart. North thereupon bid 2-Clubs and South
3-Clubs, which West passed. North
still had a chance to correct his
early error by bidding 3-Diamonds
at this stage, but he raised the
3-Clubs to 4-Clubs Instead and
South could do nothing but take
me contract to 5-Clubs. It Is easy
to see that this was defeated with
the loss of two tricks in diamonds
and one in hearts.
North's right bid after tha 1-Club
by his partner and 1-Heart by West
was not 2-Clubs but 2-Dlamonds,
as that suit contained satisfactory
no trump stoppers. If South happened to have the hostile hearts
stopped, he then could go Into no
trumps, which he obviously would
have done here, If West made the
natural lead of a heart against this,
South could have scored 4-No
Trumps with ease.

LAUGHING GAS
Now that the dentist's latest tool
Without a pain removes a tooth,
In future we can all keep cool
When we sit down inside his booth.
No more he'll make us feel so weak,
Nor make our faces wear a scowl;
No more we'll give an awful shriek
Which some dog answers with a
howl.
For when by us he takes a stand
And at a molar goes to yank
We'll press a bulb that's in our
hand
And breathe gas that comes from
a tank.
And this stuff from the chemist's
bowl
Should all of mankind's praises
win.
As when we are in its control
It causes us to laugh or grin!
It's nothing but a gentle wraith
That docs not do us any hnnn,
And  in a dentist gives us faith
And makes us see in him some
charm.

The Mouthpiece
Nelson High School's
Column for 1937
By  A.W.S. and  R.J.C.
It was the track meet last October
which marked the awakening of a
school spirit in the Nelson high
school. Perhaps it was the "progress-
iveness" of students like Syd Horswill, Gary Bowell and George Russell, or it was the students then.'
selves realizing the need for cooperation. A school in which all the
students cooperate is bound to be
a progressive school, and anyone who noted the progress of the
Nelson high school since 1935 can
not fail to note the difference.
During the 1935-6 term what did
we have? Practically nothing, only
an occasional dance, debate or soft-
ball game. What have we now? A
well organized executive council
a promising dance orchestra, a
snappy pep band, an ambitious
program for 1938, comprising track
meets, dances, clubs and societies
and most important of all, the support of the students. They have already shown their eagerness to
participate in any school undertaking, and this feeling will be fostered by the formation of a club for
those who have won the "Big N",
the outstanding award at N.H.S., to
develop and hold the interest of the
..students in any undertaking.
SCHOOL SPIRIT
There are some who scorn the
"rah-rah" spirit in the school. They
think it is foolish and even childish
to encourage their athletic representation in the various sports.
Strangely, one never sees thest? people in a track suit, or attending a
basketball or softball practice. Then
there are those who believe that
all these activities interfere with
studies. I have found that a student
who takes an active part in the
school life invariably finds no difficulty in keeping up his studies.
One generally observes that these
scoffers, who bloat about studies,
never appear very high in class
averages. I hope that "those who
come to scoff remain to play", (apologies to Goldsmith).
NOTE TO
FRESHMEN
Some of the Grade 10 students
have already had some idea of
school spirit in the junior high. In
the high school you will find that it
has been raised to a higher intensity
than you have known before, and
we hope that you will cooperate
and enter into the spirit of the high
school.
SPORTS
Basketball was not appreciated
very much last year. True, each
house could put a team on the
floor, but little interest was taken
in the games hy the students themselves. No records of games or averages were kept, The games were
often played without a single spectator in the gym, and the players
tliemselves soon became discouraged. Let us change all that. Come
and cheer for your team. Bring
your friends along. They'll not regret it, Let's develop some real
competitive spirit in the league to
bring out the best in the players.
Perhaps we may even see a "rep"
team in the City league.
Last year a team from the school
played at Kaslo, and the event was
so successful that I should like to
see this intercity league revived,
As it is possible to have only two
home games the students should endeavor to attend in full force, The
"pep band" and cheer leaders should
be prominent at these games and
ensure the success of these events.
As regards badminton, it's time
for the students to reorganize the
club for the coming season. Other
clubs in lhe city have started playing, or are making arrangements to
that effect. Surely the high school

CRESTON, Oct. 12—Three .orm-
er Creston residents are located at
Shanghai.
These include Mr. and Mrs, J. P,
Baston, nee Bertha Hurry, who have
been resident in the Chinese metropolis for several years. Mr. Baston
is a former clerk in the Creston
branch of the Bank of Commerce,
who soon after serving in the great
war, severed his connection with
the bank and shortly after his
marriage went to Shanghai to join
the Hennington Produce company
in that city. As Miss Hurry, his
wife graduated from Creston public and high school and for a time
was on the public school teaching
staff. A year ago the Baston's were
here on a holiday en route to the
Old Country, when it is reported
Mr. Baston purchased land at
West Creston, which is being developed, and where he plans to
spend his declining years.
Another former Creston resident
at Shanghai is Dick Rowe, a nephew
of Hilton Young, who resided here
for two years, prior to 'going to
the Orient three years ago. He is
a master mariner, and when last
heard from was third in command
of a freighter plying the China
coast out of Shanghai.

At Your Favorite Furniture Store
By J.CLAUDE ALLEN
Central   Press  Canadian
Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Oct. 14. — Few
people will ever know the full
extent of the official turmoil which
was raised behind the scenes in the
U.S. capital when the announcement came that the Duke and Duchess of Windsor wero going to pay
a visit to the United States "to
study housing conditions,"
COMPLICATIONS
Although it might seem at first
glance that a visit from the Duke
and Duchess of Windsor should be,
at most, a great holiday for sightseers, newspapers and photographers, it really turns out to be much
more than that. Such a visit brings
with it a host of international complications which might conceivably give a new twist to current
history and diplomatic alignments.
The state department, whose function it is to greet distinguished foreign visitors and to look after their
welfare during their stay in the
country, was completely distracted.
Newspaper reporters who made inquiry at the state department were
told that there was no comment to
be made upon the coming visit of
the Windsors.
Meanwhile frantic telegrams were
sent to President Roosevelt who was,
at the time, speeding toward Washington after completing his western
tour. Secretary of State Cordell
Hull held hurried conferences with
his under secretaries and with his
intimate advisers. Historical archivists were assigned to page through
diplomatic records for some sort of
a precedent to go by. It was found
that never before had an ex-king

chosen to visit the United States.
There were almost no precedents to
follow.
IT CAME ON SUNDAY
Cable wires and transatlantic telephone calls were resorted to in efforts to contact high officials of
Great Britain. Numerous attempts
were made,to reach members of the
British embassy in Washington for
information and advice. But the
announcement of Edward's pending
visit was received in Washington on
a Sunday, and British diplomats
here were week-ending elsewhere.
To Britishers, a week-end is traditionally inviolable and is never
broken into except for the most
drastic emergencies. That onlv added fuel to the distraction of United
States officials.
Their problem was manifold. It
had been previously understood in
diplomatic quarters here that the
British government was distinctly
opposed to any intentions which Edward and Wally might have for a
trip to America. Should the United
States "government flout the British
government by extending an extravagant welcome to the "ex,ileu"
king? That was one of the problems
confronting state department officials.
On the other hand, Edward was,
until recently, the monarch of all the
power of Britain. He still is the
ranking member of British royalty.
To slight him might be considered a
democratic sneer. That was another
alternative danger.
ON INTIMATE TERMS
At the present moment the United
States is on the closest and most intimate diplomatic terms with Great
Britain. Although no treaty of alliance has ever been signed or formally recognized, it is an established
fact in international circles Inat an
Anglo-American "rapp roch ment" exists, binding the diplomatic policies
of the two countries together,
When England speaks in world
affairs, the voice of England always
is considered to convey at least a
whisper of the voice of America.
Additionally, there is currently being negotiated a reciprocal trade
agreement between Britain and the
United States. It is a matter of
deep concern to U. S. officials and
economists that nothing should occur to endanger the chances of the
trade agreement. Economically,
Great Britain is one of America's
best customers for cotton, heavy ma- ,
chinery, automobiles, and wheat.
Hence the state department was in
a high dither. Here arc some of the
problems that must be faced:
1. Should the secretary of state
take part in welcoming formalities?
2. Should   an   official   entertainment be given the Duke and Duchess
at the White House?
WALLY'S STANDING
3. What social standing should be
given to the Duchess of Windsor, the
former Wally Simpson of Baltimore?
This, itself, is the problem vexing
to point of prostration.
4. Should "Wally" be addressed by
official hostesses in Washington as
"Your Royal Highness"?
5. Will courtesies shown Edward
and Wally here be construed as a
slap at former Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin?
There are a host of other questions
and problems which formed the
basis for discussions lasting far, far
into the morning of the day after the
first .startling announcement.
But, evidently, all the problems
will be smoothed out, for word
comes from London that Sir Ronald
Lindsay. British amassador at Washington, has obtained "favorable reaction" from the White House, the
duke is said to have promised the
British government not to make any
speeches, and his entourage, duly
passed upon by the British, will contain five or six persons. The U. S,
labor department also will provide
an observer to guide the duke
around the industrial areas he desires to see.

Demand Pear Boxes Is
on the Increase
Says Nagle
Reflecting improved conditions
among fruit growers and their optimistic hopes for the current apple
crop. 25 to 30 per cent more boxes
are being used this year than last.
D. G. Nagle of Kootenay Wire
Works stated Monday that his factory has turned out additional apple
boxes this year to about that percentage.
Increased production at the Nelson plant is indicative of improvement throughout the district, since
Kootenay Wire Works boxes are
used from the Kootenay lake on
the east to the Arrow lakes on the
west and beyond, and from Nakusp
on the north to Fruitvale south.
"The year has already been a
fairly good one for growers who
had cherries to market, even though
they lost a large quantity through
rain at the wrong time, and it appears just now that apple returns
will be better than last year," Mr.
Nagle said. "That is the impression
I receive from growers."
Mr. Nagle stated the box-making
industry is changing with the years.
Formerly growers concentrated on
fall varieties of apples, but latterly
the winter varieties had come to the
fore and fall apples were taking a
back seat.
Demand for pear boxes Is slowly
increasing as the district production of pears gains. Box makers are
also turning out more of the "suitcase" type of box used for plums,
prunes and such fruits.

FUTURE OF WORLD REST. WITH
DEMOCRATIC YOUTH CLUB TOLD
Windebank Analyzes Danger From Warlike
Ideals of Some Countries Before
Rotarians; Duty to Teach
That the democratic countries
must work together to save democracy, and that if this were to be accomplished, their youth must be
given an international outlook, was
contended by John Windebank of
Rossland, an ex-premier of the boys'
parliament for this province, in addressing the Rotary club Monday
on "Youth and the World Tomorrow."
The present generation of youth
was looked on with much concern,
perhaps because it was the source of
hope for the future, the speaker
suggested. "We were war babies,
born in an era of economic instability and of international uncertainty; we are embittered perhaps
by the missing of things that might
have been ours under other circumstances, and our attitude is one of
disillusion," he explained, Respecting the disillusion, he mentioned
that wealth was not so glorious
when one saw what it could put on
governments; arms lost their glamor
t.i those who had had a peep behind the scenes; and the failure of
religion to measure up to its opportunities led many to become
skeptics and discard it.
On the other, the youth of democratic countries were fortunate in
the unusual interest being taken in
their training by public-spirited bodies such as the Rotary c'ub and
others. And bodies interested in
public welfare had better give
youth this training, Mr. Windebank said, for other countries that
wore non-democratic, youth were
trained in the wrong direction.
WHEN LIBERTY
WAS LOST
Those countries lost freedom when
the people for a moment relinquished their grip on liberty. But Aorse
to him. said the speaker, than the
poison gas, was the training of the
children to be cogs in 'he high-
geared war machines. War scares
were blazed across the front pages
today, but far worse than conditions as threatened today was the
promise for the future, when the
wrongly-taught and wrongly-led
youth of today would he in command
ot armies and governments. Poison
gas was not as bad as poisoned
ideas.
Recalling an address given seme
years ago by General Smuts, probably the statesman of longest vision
of this generation, the speaker noted
General Smuts told his hearers that
the future held a worse danger than
that of war—the danger of loss of
liberty—and that the danger sifnals
were up. The new tyranny, said the
youthful speaker, enlisted youth in
its ranks, and democratic countries
must call on youth to combat the
danger to liberty.
"WE OR THEY?"
Mr. Windebank quoted at some
length from a book by Hamilton
Fish Armstrong, editor of the Foreign Affairs Journal in the United
States, its title "We or They?" being
taken from Mussolini's famous
phrase, Mussolini conceiving that
"wo or they" would be victorious,
but that there could be no harmony
between the two schools of thought
or groups of nations professing them,
Hitler, for his part, was quoted
where he predicted the world would
be ruled by those using brute force,
and that the struggle could end only
in the death of capitalism or of the
Soviets. These men calmly expressed philosophies that made Napoleon's most callous epigrams seem
tame. The German dictionaries
were revised to contain definitions
wanted by the Nazis, and an abyss
was created across which intercommunication with democratic
peoples became impossible. How
could the spoon-fed press, allowed
to publish only government propaganda, be in any sense called newspapers, asked the author of the book,
who pointed out that the classrooms
of the German universities were forcibly closed to some of Germany's
most distinguished sons.
"We can't go to Germany for education; can we go for morals?" Mr.
Windebank further quoted from the
book, whose author said youth was
asked to will anarchy upon the modern world, and the Germans wero
asked to view history and facts
only as glorifying Germany. After
standing 500 years before Heidelberg university, the statue of the
Goddess of Wisdom was dethroned
at the recent quinquennial, and replaced by a statue to the German
Spirit. "We no longer recognize
philosophy for truth's sake, or science for science's sake," the author
summarized the German intellectual
altitude. Even sport was made a
political vehicle, and it was declared
to be unthinkable lhat contests
should be won by those not in sympathy with the new German ideal,
BOYS IN TRENCHES
Mussolini said anything a nation
desired could be won by war, while
Hitler declared that the abolition
of war would mean the destruction
of mankind. Mr. Windebank pictured schoolboys, who should have
been employed in healthy sports,
lined up in trenches and solemnly
throwing empty bombs toward each
other, or undergoing rifle drills and
route marches, and eventually donning the shirt of approved color, ignorant of the outside world and
hating it as an enemy.
Verily it was a case of "Theid Ideals or Ours," said the speaker.
Democratic peoples would have
lo see things farther, he said. The
strength of the countries he had
been discussing was in their perversion of youth. The youth of democratic countries must combat the
idea of war. "If our Christianity
was as intense as their paganism,
ideals of peace would win," said the
speaker.
TWO AGENCIES
AVAILABLE
Mr. Windebank concluded that
the hope for peace lay in two great
agencies, which, in spite of faults
and failures, still continued the possibilities of success, these being the
League of Nations and the church,
both of which should be supported
in their efforts.
"Our youth," said the youthful
Rosslander, "must be given a character to counteract that being given
the youth of countries exalting
force."
E. W. Somers, who was called on
by President T. H. Horswill to speak

One Mill Offers
Hewsprinl at $48
NEW YORK, Oct. 18 (AP).—The
Great Northern company, 342 Madison avenue, New York City, today
anndunced an increase of $5.50 per
ton over their 1937 prices during
the first six months of 1938, and an
increase of $7.50 a ton over 1937
prices for the last six months of
1938. Thus, their New York delivered price during the first six months
will be $48, and during the last six
months of 1938, $50 a ton.
Other companies have announced
a $50 price for the first six months.
"This action of this United States
mill repudiates the leadership of
the Canadian newsprint industry in
announcing in March 1937 a $50 price
for the first half of 1938 only " says
the American Newspaper Publishers'
association.
"It is believed that contracts ot
many large Canadian manufacturers
guarantee a price that is no higher
than the Great Northern price, and
that a substantial amount of tonnage will be affected that Great
Northern has set the price for the
entire country.
Nevertheless, the Increase jn cost
of newsprint for 1938, estimated at
$25,000,000, will be a serious challenge to the management of newspapers. It will undoubtedly require
an increase in circulation rates and
advertising rates all along the line."

Says Speculation
Aids Grain Grower
WINNIPEG, Oct. 18 (CP)— Grain
speculation, rather than being harmful, tends to make the price a little
higher than it would be if no futures market existed, Major- H. 3. L.
Strange, research director of Scarlc
Grain company, Winnipeg said
today before the Turgeon Royal
G'.ain commission.
Wiiness said, however, he vas net
in iavor of "excessive speculation,"

"We Don't Want lo Go Back lo
Tinhorn Slock Market of 1929"
NEW YORK. Oct, 18 (AP)—Justice Ferdinand Pecora, former member of the United States securities
and exchange commission, defended
federal regulation of financial markets today in a sharply-worded
reply to Winthrop W. Aldrich, chairman of the board of the Chase National bonk.
Aldrich laid responsibility for the
recent break in the stock market at
the door of federal acts and agencies.
Pecora declared that "the sooner
the leaders of the financial community realize the futility of trying to recreate the old happy hunting ground, the sooner they will attain the stable market they profess
so much to want."
"Many of the provisions of that
act (Securities Exchange act of 1934)
were designed to guard against the
speculative excesses and vicious
practices which that investigation
revealed to have been due, not only
fo the irresponsible lone-wolf speculator, and the greedy pool manipulator, but also to some of the then
most prominent and respected bankers in the country," he said.
"... I don't agree with Mr. Aid-
rich that we have got to go back
to the days of 1929 when all America gambled and lost at Wall
Street's green tables, while the
benevolent and Informed insiders
dealt out the marked cards."

top of another too deeply, since the
lower tubers will be injured by Ihe
weight of the top ones. The tubers
should be examined from time to
time, and this is more easily done
if there are only single or double
layers in each box.
The Chinese say that a bit of ugliness will make the beauty of a garden stand out with much more
strength. They often deliberately
leave a dead tree standing, and
group' bright flowers and lovely
shrubs around it. Beauty, they say,
will then appear more beautiful.
Lilies, squills, snowdrops, hyacinths, crocuses and narcissi should
all be planted this month if possible.
The best fertilizer is an organic
one such as bone meal or wood
ashes, but this should not touch the
bulbs.
If sod is to be laid in the lawn or
along the borders of paths or beds,
this work should be undertaken at
once so that the grass may become
well rooted before cold weather.

Gomez has stepped on it and passed it. The Yankees
won the game, 4-2, and retained the world series

by Moore that opened the series and Gomez was also
on the mound then so he opened and closed the series

B. C. Products Week
B. C. Products Week is here again, symbolizing the one week in the year when the attention of storekeepers and shoppers alike is fo-
cussd on the desirability of buying and boosting products of this province
Elsewhere in this issue will be found data regarding firms of British Columbia whose products are always available and which rival
the best of importations.
There should not be any necessity of explaining the results of buying B. C. Products. Money spent on such goods is money that will
return again in many ways, in employment and better conditions for the entire province.
The response during B. C. Products Week is invariably good, but there is a thought behind it that is considerably more important. If
it is beneficial to concentrate on the output of provincial firms for one week, how much more beneficial it would be to do the same
for the entire year. Make every week a B. C. Products Week in your home!

NEWS NOTES:
Gathered in passing:
Frank Coulson, coach of the North
Battleford Beaver., who was tossed
out of the Battleford camp along
theplayoff trail last spring, is now
in Edmonton and will handle Edmonton Dominions this season.
Had thought soccer football was
about dead hereabouts; but at the
Junior High school '.other day saw
a bunch of youngsters out for their
P.T, period, or something, kicking
a ball around; and Doug Chamberlain, their instructor, told me the
lads just about beg to be permitted
to play soccer. Trouble with soccer
is it's too simple—kids don't need
expensive, fancy equipment and so
on to play it, so it isn't encouraged.
One thing about the new hockey
residence rule—the boys who accept
bids to the various amateur teams
will have to produce or they'll get
the gate. Club managements don't
have to figure on keeping a fellow
around for a year to make him
eligible now, Until the thing settles
down there'll be a great scrambling
of players back and forth,
A KELLYWAIL:
My pat Gordon Kelly, Trail Times
sportist, wails about the Kootenay
Hockey league operating as a commercial circuit this winter instead
of holding to C.A.H.A. rules. I'm
inclined to agree with him but
not on the grounds he advances. He
bewails poor houses, pointing to
last season for an example. While
he may be right as far as Trail was
concerned, the opposite was true in
Nelson, and until someone solves
the hockey employment problem
in Nelson, tlie Maple Leaf hockey
club will have to null for the most
open rules available.
But I do Miink a team is well-
advised to stick to C.A.H.A, rules,
so far as eligibility is concerned,
for its own benefit. It won't then
have to shake up tlie team at the
end of the season for playoffs. As
a matter of fact, there's nothing
against Trail doing just that on its
own hook.
The main point is not rules, eligibility, C.A.H.A. nor commercial
loopholes—it's the production of
hockey the fans want to see. Regardless of the ultimate outcome,
they'll turn out if the games are
worth It. The whole thing's so wide
open now, in any case, that a club
can pretty well guide itself and
still be right.

FOR THE RECORDS
Put this in your record book; The
Nelson junior lacrosse executive
has publicly, in a letter to this department, expressed "appreciation
and thanks lo the civic centre commission and especially Denis St,
Denis for their nearly and willing
cooperation during our very progressive season of lacrosse."
Moreover, the executives declare
that if they have "the same kind of
cooperation . . . next year as we
had this and if the boys show as
much improvement next year as
they did this, we will have plenty
of local material for future senior
teams without importing them."
It's not custom for any sports
body to say "Thanks", but Leo
McKinnon, Art Wallace, Jimmie
Ringrose and Russel French did it
for junior lacrosse as signatories to
the letter.
* •   •
SPORTS UNANIMITY:
Surprising unanimity of sports
writers in their view of the new
basis of operation of the Canadian
Lacrosse association is exhibited in
columns across the country. F'rin-
stance;
Ralph Allen, Winnipeg Tribune—
"Propelled by the late Canadian
Amateur Lacrosse association, the
Amateur Athletic Union took one
of the roughest excursions of all
time. ... To date the heavens have
not fallen In, nor has the earth been
rent asunder. This is rather surprising because the Amateur Union
has maintained vehemently that
world catastrophe lies beyond such
acts of official hcresey. It is bad
enough, the A.A.U. has indicated,
to suggest that all amateurs are not
on the level without challenging the
sancity and practicality of the
amateur code itself."
AN HONEST MOVE
J. P. Fitzgerald. Torpnto Telegram sports editor—"Whatever may
be said of the wisdom of the move
the action must be commended for
its honesty.
"Canada and other countries have
been playing fast and loose with the
amateur laws, but still insisting on
calling themselves "amateur." Boys
have been playing hockey and other
games as a means of livelihood and
as the sole means; they have been
spending their winters in England,
France, United States and elsewhere engaged in hockey and nothing else, coming home for the summer.
"Nobody can have any objection
to that, but when they insist on posing as amateurs, aided, abetted and
backed by the Canadian Amateur
(?) Hockey association, it is not
exactly on the up-and-up."
• •   «
EXTREMELY HONEST
Tommy Munn, Toronto Globe and
Mail sports editor—"Canada's la-
crossists are becoming extremely
honest. ... If the officials felt that
the association couldn't be honestly
amateur they are to be admired for
admitting it and tossiug thinly-
veiled subterfuge that fooled few,
if any, out the window."

MOSI PROMISING
REPORTS COMING
FROM MARITIME!
Return  of  Kimberley
Seen as Help to
B. C. Picture
QUEBEC HAS 2
SENIOR LOOPS
OTTAWA, Oct. 18 (CP)—Amateur
hockey throughout Canada should
enjoy one of its best seasons during
1937-38, it was indicated by reports
to the office of Cecil Duncan, president of the Canadian Amateur
Hockey association.
Most promising reports come from
the Maritimes. Bill Gill and Dud
James of Moncton Hawks have applied for reinstatement and if their
requests are granted will play witli
one of the strong teams the east
expects to send out on the Allan
cup trail again.
A new play-off arrangement will
affect the Maritimes. In future, the
Quebec province or the Ottawa and
district champions will travel east
to meet the winners of the Maritimes title, instead of the latter visiting them for the playoff.
More than a dozen professionals
haveapplled for amateur cards In
Quebec, and the province will
have two senior loops this season,
instead of one. The provincial
league, an intermediate circuit last
season, has been given senior rating. The Quebec senior league,
formerly the Montreal senior
group, Is the other.
ONTARIO  PICTURE
BRIGHTENS
For a time, withdrawal of mercantile clubs in the Ontario Hockey
association left the outlook gloomy
around Toronto and district, but it
seems certain now that Oshawa,
Port Colborne, Toronto and Hamilton will be banded into a senior
group lhat will produce better
hockey and will send out stronger
teams for the playdown.
Northern Ontario is expected to
Ice some of Canada's strongest
squads to defend the Allan cup
won last year by Sudbury. They
have been sending out worthy
champions for many seasons, and
Indications seem to substantiate
belief the 1937-38 winners of the
northern loop will again be formidable opponents for other teams
entering  the  playdowns.
The outlook in Thunder Bay
branch is promising. Port Arthur
and Fort William will play a regular schedule with American teams
and wilt then meet in a play-off
series, before engaging the intermediate champions of the same league.
Manitoba is having trouble organizing a strong senior league but
is expected to have things ironed
out in time to start the campaign on
schedule.
Owing to drought conditions on
the prairies, the situation there is
somewhat uncertain.
BIG YEAR
FOR  ALBERTA
Alberta is prepared for a bi« year.
The game has been given another
boost there in the knowledge that
the Allan cup finals will be played
again in Calgary.
Strongclubs In Trail, Kimberley,
Rossland and Nelson, are expected
to give British Columbia one ot
the best seasons In a long time.
The return of the world's amateur hockey champions, Kimberley Dynamiters, to competition
should help the game there.
Tlie five-team south Saskatchewan
league will operate again this season and the north Saskatchewan
league will operate only three teams,
North Battleford's withdrawal leaving Prince Albert, Saskatoon and
Flin Flon, Man.

Cotton and Primeau
to Coach Amateurs
TORONTO, Oct. 18 (CP)— Toronto Maple Leafs of the National
Hockey league will be represented
this season by two "goodwill ambassadors," Manager Conny Smythe
announced at the annual pre-season
luncheon today.
Smythe said that Harold (Baldy)
Cotton and Joe Primeau former Leaf
players, now in retirement, would be
available to all amateur clubs of
the province who wished coaching
advice. Cotton and Primeau will be
sent all over the province at the
expense of the Leafs, Smythe said.
Tony Lazzeri (LEFT), who made the only home
run ot the game, and Joe DiMaggio, the batting sensation, who contributed heroic assistance in the New
York Yankees' ccoring, are shown holding "Lefty"
Gomez, pitching ace, on  their shoulders in the
Yankee dressing room after their great victory ln the
opening game of the world series. The Yankees scored eight runs, making seven of them in the sixth
inning, while the bewildered Giants were only able
to obtain one run during the entire game.
SPOKANE GETS
SUNDAY HOCKEY
SEATTLE, Oct. 18 (AP)—Attorney Phil Lycette, president of the
Seattle hockey club, announced today there will be professional hockey in Seattle this winter with a
team "second to none in the league."
His statement came after an all-
Sunday conference with President
Bobby Rowe, of the Portland club,
and Guy Patrick, Vancouver, B. C,
president.
Lycette said the matter of a manager was undecided, but that he had
settled another league problem by
agreeing to play home games Wednesdays, instead of Sundays as he
had desired. Spokane will have
the Sunday games. Seattle amateur
teams will have the ice here Sundays.

of trade.
Mr. Jackson or "The Millionaire
Kid" has left for Vancouver.

SPORTS ROUNDUP...
By EDDIE BRIETZ
(Associated Press Sports Writer).
NEW YORK, Oct. 18 (AP).-Red
hot tip: Don't be surprised if Jimmy
Foxx (don't forget that extra "x")
does his home run hitting for Cleveland next season. ... Joe McCarthy
just can't forget next season will be
his 13lh as a big league manager.
. . . There is little or no superstition
among pro footballers. . . . tn yesterday's game at the Polo grounds
both Dave Similiter of Philadelphia
and "Kink" Richards of the Giants
wore No. 13. . . . One good bet to
paste in your hat is that the White
Sox will get Joe Kuhel from Washington Senators this winter.
So Minnesota finally discovered it
Is still in the big league, eh? . . .
Kinda hard to keep a team steamed
up three straight weeks, aint it, Mr
Suavely. . . . (And we're not taking anything away from Ossie Sol-
em's fine Syracuse team, either*
., .He doesn't know it yet, but the
Cincinnati Reds decide lo lake Hie
Syracuse club off Jack Corbetl's
hand, young Gabe Paul (who wore
himself down press agenting for the
Reds) will head it. ... Whether
they win any grid champions, or
not, the Texas Aggies have four of
the best hog callers ever hc„rd in
a metropolitan orchard.
A lot ot folks think he made a
mistake in going to Cincinnati, but
congratulations to Bill McKechnie,
just the same. ... In our book he's
one of the three smartest managers
in the majors. . . . The Nov. 12
battle between Freddie Steele and
Fred Apostilli is an over-the-weight
affair, but all who don't believe the
world will recognize the winner as
the world's middleweight champ;
will please stand up. . . . What, no
line.. . . Curly Stebbins, work hors:;
of the Pitt Panthers, is such a good
singer he already lias offers from
the old maestro, Ben Bernic- . . .
Looks blip Tony Lazzeri is ticketed
for Philadelphia.

joe McCarthy
Few, if any, managers ln major
league baseball have achieved the
wonderful  results   and   consistent
success that has attended the efforts of Joe McCarthy manager of
the New York Yankees, newly*
crowned world champs. His sue-"
cess in guiding the Yankees Int*;'
an American league pennant last
year and then the world's cham»
pionshlp which he duplicated thi»
year are feats that need no recalling to our memory. The Yankees were one of the most powerful teams that baseball has ever
seen and set records in hitting that
will likely not be surpassed for
some time to come.
But this Is not the first time McCarthy has shown his genius as a
pilot. Down through the years his
efforts have met with remarkable
success. Time after time he has
guided his charges Into pennant
positions, and on more than one
occasion has captured the pennant
in the league in which he was
working.
This fact is an the more remarkable when we realize that McCarthy at no time ever played
major league ball and at present is
the only man in the major league
who has that distinction.

IRON AND STEEL
OUTPUT IN THE
DOMINION IS UP
Demand So Large That
Deliveries Are Behind
at Some Mills
OTTAWA, Oct. 18 (CP)- The
Dominion bureau of statistics today
reported vigorous upturns in September iron and steel production
compared to that of a year before as
demand for some markets taxed
mills to such an extent that deliveries fell behind.
Production of 77,180 long tons of
pig iron was three per cent above
the 74,578-ton August figure and 49
per cent above the 51.892 tons produced in September, 1936.   Output
for the first three-quarters of the
year totalled more tons compared
with 465,785 tons in the first nine
months of 1936.
September output of ferro-alloys
from electric and blast furnaces was
7720 tons, greater than the 5027 tons
of September last year, but smaller than August's 9913 tons.
Production of ingots and direct
steel castings dropped in September
to 114,622 tons compared with August's 126,695 but was almost 30,000
tons greater than the 86077-ton
output of September, 1936.

NEW YORK, Oct. 18 (A,?\ —
Stock market leaders crashed
through support levels today for
the most severe break In more
than four years, many losing two
to 15 points.

greater than expected drop In
steel mill operations—the American Iron & Steel Institute estimated them at 55.8 per cent of
capacity this week, off 7.8 points
at the lowest mark since March,
1936—and U. S. Steel followed by
Chrysler, led the fast retreat.
The ticker tape frequently was
behind. It was eight minutes In
arrears at the close an ' the final
quotation of an active issue wae
printed approximately 17 minutes after the sound of the concluding gong.
Sliding tendencies appeared shortly after a mild rally at the opening. Virtually all depressed stocks
ended at bottom lands for the day.
The Associated Press average of
60 issues was off 3.8 points, the most
sizeable recession for a single day
since July 20, 1933. At 45.1, it was
the lowest since July 6, 1935. Total
number of shares traded in was
1014, or actually four more than in
the big pro-depression break of October 28, 1929. Transfers aggregated
3.227,520 shares compared with 2,-
538,270 last Friday. The volume
was the largest since March 3.

YMIR-SHEEP CREEK MINING MAY
TAKE LEADERSHIP OF PROVINCE
FROM BRIDGE RIVER NEXT YEAR
Production $4,500,000
Estimated 1937, Two
Mills Coming in
NOW NINE MILLS IN
STEADY OPERATION
With an estimated output of over
$4,500,000 this year and two new major milling operations—at Durango
and Gold Belt—slated for early production, the Ymir-Sheep Creek gold
mining area south of Nelson may assume leadership of British Colum-

bia's several important camps during 1938, says the Vancouver Sun.
The Bridge River area enjoys that
distinction today, almost entirely
from the lucrative yields of Bralorne and Pioneer mines, which will
aggregate some $5,000,000 during the
current 12 months.
But the southern interior district
lias its "golden eggs" more widely
scattered . . .
in the area . . . there are nine
steady milling operations handling
some 850 tons of ore daily and employing in excess of 1000 men.
$3 MILLIONS OUTPUT
A preliminary estimate places the
Sheep Creek valley output for the
year at $3,000,000: that of the Ymir
camp at $1,000,000 and the remaining $500,000 from the Erie mines just
west of Ymir.
Additionally however, and for
which records are not available, are
the regular earnings of several
crude ore shippers in the three main
centres, notably the Arlington at
Erie which is being operated by the
Oscarson brothers under lease from
the Relief-Arlington mines, the Clu-
bine-Comstock at Salmo and at
Sheep Creek, the Salmo Malartic
and Ore Hill properties.
These and the score of small intermittent shippers may reasonably
be counted on to boost the grand
total for this year near the $5,000,000
mark.
This is an earning power practically $5,000,000 above that existing
in the Salmon River valley five
years ago, when the original Reno
operation was struggling into existence, and $35 gold came into being.
BIG PAYROLLS
Throughout the five years, the
valley has maintained its average
of two 100-ton operations each year,
which resolves itself into two industries with an average earning
capacity of $500,000 each per annum.
The new Durango plant one mile
south of Ymir which is scheduled
for early operation, and the proposed concentrator of 100-ton capacity at Sheep Creek's Gold Belt
mine will continue this record.
The monthly payrolls in the three
main camps today are estimated as
follows: Ymir $45,000, Salmo $100,-
000, and Erie $25,000. These include,

THIS AFTERNOON, 3 P. M.
at the Women's Institute Rooms, Civic Centre
EVERYBODY WELCOME
This experienced buyer for a British Columbia home
couldn't be sold something she didn't want. She has
learned the many advantages of buying British Columbia
products. Very rarely is it necessary for her to accept
an imported article. She insists on quality at a thrifty
price and gets it—when it's made in B. C. Besides, she
knows that every dollar she spends for B. C. products
helps to keep and make jobs for her sons and grandsons-
means greater security and happiness for herself.

of course, only the regular milling
operations.
To this can be added the smaller
mines and development operations
and the base metal properties in the
Pend Oreille area, south of Sheep
Creek on the Nelson-Spokane highway where considerable men are
employed at the Reeves MacDonald
and other mines on exploration
work.
OFFSHOOT OF MINING
Paralleling and growing out of
the developments in mining in the
Salmon valley is the lumber industry which today employs some 350
men and disburses $25,000 monthly
in wages. . . .
Small sawmills and logging operations are scattered through the valley, at Ymir, Salmo and notably
Fruitvale, a few miles south of Erie,
where some 150 men are employed
in six sawmills near the community.
Fruitvale is becoming noted as a
coming residential outlet of Trail
and during the past summer has
experienced an unprecedented construction boom.
The valley also supports a growing number of truck and dairy
farms which are finding a ready
market in the smelter city.
Whitewater Ore
Goes lo Japan;
Maybe Munitions

Defends Futures
in Wheat Probe
WINNIPEG, Oct. 15 (CP)—The
whole grain marketing plan depends upon the future system, Major
H. G. L. Strange. Winnipeg, head
of the Searle Grain company's sat-
istical department, today told the
Turgeon Royal Grain commission.
R. H. Milliken, counsel for the
Saskatchewan wheat pool, challenged Major Strange to produce any
statement coming from the United
States grain futures administration
to the effect speculation was solely
responsible for price fluctuation.
In reply, witness produced statements attributed to Dr. S. Wright
Hoffman, University of Pennsylvania
professor and economic advisor to
the administration.
Mr. Milliken declined to recognize Dr. Hoffman as an administration spokesman and quoted from a
pamphlet in which Dr. J. W. T.
Duval, chief of the grain futures administration, slated "other factors
were also at work".

Outlining the campaign of the B.
C. Products bureau in encouraging
the purchasing of home products
by British Columbians. A. C. Foreman, field secretary of the Products
bureau and member of the Vancouver board of trade addressed the
Nelson Gyros Monday evening.
Foods, furniture, clothing and
manufactured goods of this province
arc all included in the sweep of the
movement, the primary purpose of
which is to promote industry in
British Columbia and have the citizens benefifby these industries. The
furniture industry should be one of
great interest to Nelsonites, he said,
and should receive a great deal of
their attention, inasmuch as a van-
cer plant was located in the city and
the product of that plant, that employs Nelsonites, is made into furniture in this province. Hence Nelsonites purchasing B. C. manufactured furniture, may be purchasing
a true home product.
He outlined the purpose and pro'
